  1. Oats, in any form, have an exceedingly high risk of cross contamination, unless designated uncontaminated.
  2. oops, double post.
  3. Ursa, I am glad you have some answers....for everyone. I hope Susie feels better soon.
  4. Sorry that you are feeling badly. I eat Amy's mexican all the time and have never had a noticeable issue. The Shepards Pie tastes just plain bad. Amy's used to say "Gluten Free" and I had heard that they were going to have a dedicated facility, but haven't heard much news about.
  5. Just because something is labeled gluten free, does not necessarily mean that I was not in the past. That's the fallacy with the new labeling laws - carrots and celery can be labeled gluten free.
  6. Hey Jake, Have you ever had a full blood work up. (It used to be called an Executive Panel). That would be a great beginning to look for deficiencies. On going deficiencies can cause some life long irreversible issues.
  7. If you google "gluten free vacations" you will see quite a lot of options. Good luck.
  8. Open Original Shared Link Yes, steroid therapy can be uesd in extreme unresponsive cases and not all respond and the prognosis may be poor. Is is not used as a tool to expedite healing among general Celiacs.
  9. Open Original Shared Link This might be a start.
  10. Sometimes we have to remember that all roads don't lead to Celiac. It may be a virus of some sort.. But I rather think no. Recovering from Celiac your immune system goes into hyper mode and it is not often that you get sick. I was gluten free for some time and the familiar gluten like symptoms returned. I found that I was reacting to dairy as I would...
  11. byrmanson, There is a very large and very active support group in Tidewater. The Chesapeapke Tidewater Celiacs, is a Chapter of the Celiac Disease Foundation. I am beginning one in Northeastern North Carolina. They are extremely active and are role models for advocacy. Here are some contact numbers: Patricia (Trish) Cyrs (540) 0798 - weekdays...

    ARCHIVED Doctor In Miami Florida Usa

    Open Original Shared Link Pedro, Good to hear from you again. Perhaps this link may find a doctor.
  13. Healing can take up to several years depending on the amount of damage done through undiagnosed. I have NEVER heard of steroid treatment to speed the healing process. I don't believe this to be true and an ineffective aid to healing. Only a total gluten free diet will heal your system. Yes, many can have a set back when exposed to gluten and the damage...
  14. I was just reading the brochure from the Celiac Disease Foundation. It lists wheat, rye, barley and triticale as a must for elimination on the gluten free diet. Triticale was new to me. Here is some information on it: Open Original Shared Link I found it interesting.
  15. Congratulations on your success - both of you! I don't have a child with Celiac, but I have the utmost respect for mothers that do. Three Cheers to you mom!!
  16. Hey Lori, If you have been totally gluten free for three months, you should be seeing some healing effects. Have you check you cosmetics, shampoos, toothpaste, meds, supplements, i.e. anything that can get into your mouth. Do you share a toaster, gotten new wooded spoons, have a clean chopping board, replaced your scratched non-stick pots and pans...

    ARCHIVED Hi

    Welcome Ruth and congratulations on the success of your first post.
  19. Open Original Shared Link This site may be helpful. As someone I know always says..."I have never seen a turkey with gluten in it except if it was stuffed." Have a wonderful Thanksgiving.
  20. I don't know about the coating, but the risk of cc is way too great for me to consume.
  21. I don't know about latex paint, but I have heard people talk here about drywall dust. Can't verify this, but it has raised concerns.
  22. Welcome Woodric, As you most likely know, Celiac can have over 200 symptoms. One of which is a genetic tendency. I rather suspect that you have family history of digestive issues. What you have certainly has a cause and perhaps it may be gluten related. The most valid test for Celiac or gluten sensitivity is the diet. Complete and total gluten free...
  23. Perhaps, Jestgar (a member here) can help you.
  24. Yes ma'am, and how can we help?
  25. Dairy can have that same symptomatic response.
